Re: [Asterisk-Users] HW Echo Cancellers
Just a note: This vendor is selling cards with local side echo cancellation. Most of the cards that I purchased didn't have it. The 3 that I've purchased from him did. Two questions. One, why the need for local side echo cancellation? I thought you could just reverse the connection and it would now disable echo in the opposite direction? Just curious, I don't have a T1, and this is just based on what I've read. Two, is there any way to tell what cards have this option just by looking at them? I bought a large lot (40+) and intend to resell them, probably on ebay. I would like to know what extras they have or don't have, so I can list them appropriately. Thanks!

Re: [Asterisk-Users] HW Echo Cancellers
Hello, I am currently testing the Sangoma a104d echo-can card and comparing it to the Digium TE406P. I should be ready to release my testing results next week, I was a bit sidetracked by some T1 problems which have delayed my review. Even though the a104d is not supported on 1.2. I did have it running for about a month on 1.2 tree code. I had to manually do the zaptel patch, but it does work. Overall I did not have any huge echo issues to begin with and it is important to mention that there are some echo problems that no echo-canceller can solve. But they both did work and audio was nicely echo-free from both the Digium and Sangoma HW echo-can cards.
